My favourite Jane Goodall quotes....so many, so to the point, so wise. How different the world would be if enough people listened to her.

Hey AGU Paleo section, 1 week to get those abstracts in to present at #AGU2025. If you work in W. US paleoclimate we have the session for you agu.confex.com/agu/agu25/pr...

Welcome to the new home of IMMAGE, our palaeoclimate research and drilling project! 🌍✨ We’re diving deep into the ancient past to uncover clues about Earth's climate. 🌊🛠️ Follow us here for updates, discoveries, and behind-the-scenes stories. Let’s explore together! #Palaeoclimate

Science for IODP Exp 401 Mediterranean Gateway continues. Erin Winnick Anthony's videography captures the sampling youtu.be/-vKup0GK2Ys?...

one of my favorite maps to show students when discussing the last deglacial period (also from Baker's work) www.semanticscholar.org/paper/9.26-G...

Want to find all published ocean temperature records from the Miocene? Look no further than the Miocene Data Portal, home to 103 SST and 13 BWT records. Deposit your own data or look at global coverage for different proxies. Just have fun! bolin.su.se/data/miocene...

Free stream of the AZ PBS show on Lucy's 50th and some coverage of our 2024 Hadar field season. azpbs.org/lucys-lastin...

To our faculty on Bluesky: We want to follow you! Please drop a comment with your title, department and spirit animal (optional) and we’ll add you to USC Dornsife’s starter pack go.bsky.app/Kh1R4v6

Hive mind: IODP data reports or Data in Brief? Data in Brief has a publication fee. Other journal alternatives for data reports of results without interpretation and without publication fees? Thx

Really happy to be spending the next week or so with so many enthusiastic students and colleagues at USSP! 😊 thanks for being a part of this

Tim Lowenstein and team synthesized Death Valley, Searles, Owens and the Devils Hole - records that span 200,000 years of hydroclimate fluctuations in the Southern Great Basin - read all about it authors.elsevier.com/c/1jJmd_6Jey... (30 day free link). #NSFFunded

Groundtruthing Future Climate Change is a NASEM priority and a flagship initiative of the IODP 2050 Science framework. If you work on proxy reconstruction, proxy-model comparisons or models for PlioMIP, MioMIP, EoMIP this session at AGU2024 is for you. agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/pr...

Job alert! Are you interested in palaeoclimate over geological timescales? If so, we have an open post-doc @OxUniEarthSci on @NERCscience project, with me @ClimateSamwell @sebsteinig & others @bridge_geog Please spread the word! Deadline Feb 20th. tinyurl.com/3n8kp9c6

Crossover cores are the best cores @melissaberke.bsky.social. Get to mix it up and see the other shift's crew. Who are these people awake on the other side of the clock?

Really enjoyed figuring out this story with Dr. Mark Peaple and our salty lake team - while the Pliocene warmth is famous, deep lakes filled in SoCal during the M2 glacial pluvial, biomarkers say. Open access doi.org/10.1029/2023...

Hey hey welcome @valiergaly.bsky.social ⚒️ 🧪

Lots of fish as the drill bit goes down to find the hole on IODP exp401, earlier today but been a bit busy

Christoph Haeggi's postdoc in my lab yielded a second paper, this one focused on plant wax d13C measured in soils on a transect N of Sao Paolo Uni-collab: Using Multi-Homologue Plant-Wax Carbon Isotope Signatures to Reconstruct Tropical Vegetation Types DOI: 10.22541/essoar.170317317.79940329/v1

Sunrise and vigorous fresh air for night shift of IODP Exp401 on the JR

Moonlighting in the microfossil lab on Exp401 - foram washing takes me back to year 1 of grad school in @pdemenocal.bsky.social lab. Playing with mud and sprayers is always fun!

Christmas sunrise on the helideck, drilling apace on Hole B IODP Exp401

What is the JR Exp401 currently drilling? Hole B to fill gaps in recovery from Hole A including the mission critical Messinian.🤞 All we want for Xmas is a complete record of MSC. ⚒️

Does all y'all's universities have a habit of sending out teaching evaluations on the day before Christmas? Or is it just USC that has this festive tradition?

@melissaberke.bsky.social and I worked tag team around the clock to do all the coulometry on the first hole of #Exp401 #IMMAGEland2sea. Weighing on waves requires patience, which apparently we both have lots of!

Snapped this one yesterday, day shift Simon has an office with a view for morning emails. #TheJR #Exp401 #IMMAGEland2sea

Oscar sets up a phosphate run at midnight because science at sea never sleeps. #theJR #Exp401 #IMMAGEland2sea

Some art I’ve made on the JOIDES Resolution so far. Done with Chalk + colored pencil.

You know you've made it when you've got a corner office desk at sea @dirtmossart.bsky.social!

I am getting in the holiday spirit while doing editorial work while at off-shift at sea. My review requests are going out today onward with the following: **Of course feel free to email the journal if you would like a routine 2 week extension over the holidays.** Thank you!

We arrived at our first station. All went still. The metal whirr began almost instantly. Interpreting sounds heard for the first time, sequestered in the hull.

A warm welcome to @dirtmossart.bsky.social. Kellan is a medical science illustrator and outreach officer aboard #IODP #TheJR #Exp401 #IMMAGEland2sea.

Captain Harm gave a tour of the bridge and 2 hrs later we were still keeping an eye on the ship that was not in it's lane (it was in the lane for hazardous cargo). It is crowded out here at sea, four lane highways of commuting traffic!

After several days of training aboard the JOIDES Resolution, I wake up to profound sadness that this ship is retiring and that we are losing all this amazing expertise aboard, the staff and systems are incredible.

Night shift enjoying dolphins, whale and blue skies after sunrise off Galicia.

Energy both ways on the Dutch coast

Curious who has classic V S C lignin analytical capabilities and paleovegetation interests these days?

#TheJR is looking pretty festive as we hear up to head out of Amsterdam on #Exp401. I am working the night shift 🧪 in the chemistry lab at sea for the next 2 months, phase 1 of #IMMAGEland2sea ⚒️ #NSFfunded

@roseatmos.bsky.social just gave a gripping seminar on monitoring NYC air pollution while visiting us here at USC Earth under our classic blue skies with a bit of 'haze'.

Paleoclimate graduate students! Applications are now OPEN for the summer 2024 paleoCAMP! Come be part of an amazing two week intensive paleoclimate summer school! paleoclimate.camp/apply (colleagues, please share and RT widely, here and on other platforms)

I’ve taught about climate change for over three decades. I’m allowing myself to be cautiously encouraged for the first time. You should too. Thanks @drkatemarvel.bsky.social for this helpful message and let’s keep it going

Here thanks to @ninadavtian.bsky.social to connect with colleagues.
